How to resize(shrink) a virtual guest on OVM 3

Hi all
I have the following situation :
1.I created a virtual guest of 70 GB.
2. In the Dom0, I see that it uses only 14 GB.
Q: Is there a way to shrink the virtual disk of this guest?
Thanks,
Rudi

  • How can I create a Virtual Private Nework on my MacBook Pro?

    Hello all,
    I have a MacBook Pro 17" with OS X 10.4.7. I need to install and run five instances of Apache2 and demonstration the websites without having to be connected to a network/Internet. My /etc/hosts file would look something like:
    192.168.21.1 www.local
    192.168.21.2 svn.local
    192.168.21.3 trac.local
    192.168.21.4 jsp.local
    192.168.21.5 cfmx.local
    Then I could just open up a browser and type www.local in the url locator.
    How would I setup a virtual network card where I can assign these IP addresses to it? Would I use the lo0 (loopback) for this?
    I also have Parallels installed so that I can run one or more other operating system along side Mac OS X like Windows XP Pro, Redhat, etc.
    Is there a way that I could create a virtual private network on my MacBook Pro and not have to be connected to any network?
    How would I do this?
    Thanks,
    Troy Simpson

    As it turns out this is exactly what I am looking for:
    http://forum.parallels.com/thread1877.html
    I want to create a Host-Only Network on my MacBook Pro. The Parallels software created a virtual Network Interface Card on the Host OS called en2. I just added aditional IP Address to this virtual Network Interface Card.
    Even if you do not use Parallels for Hosting Guest OS (Virtual Machines), it does create the Virtual Network Interface Card.
    Now I have 5 Web Servers on my MacBook Pro so that I can test various senerios and configurations.

  • When I'm using a browser (like Safari) in Yosemite, how can I shrink it and share my desktop with other applications?

    I have an iMac, and after installing Yosemite (OS 10.10), all my browsers (like Safari) no longer share the screen with other applications, like Word or even Calculator.  How can I shrink Safari (or any browser) and share my desktop with other applications?

    When I'm using any browser (at the moment, it's Safari), I am unable to resize the window.  The browser BECOMES my entire desktop.  And if I open another application, suddenly the browser vanishes to the right, so I can only see the other app.  AND my dock disappears into a solid black space below the screen, which I can penetrate with my curser (after dragging the curser back and forth above and below the black space until the dock eventually reappears.  But if I select any app in the browser to open, then Safari vanishes instantly to the right of the screen.  I've tried to resize Safari (and Firefox and Chrome) by moving the curser to the bottom right of the browser, but that old standby doesn't seem to work anymore.  The browser takes up all of the screen, except for a small portion of the top, where my curser can reveal Safari's old menus, and the bottom of the screen, which is entirely black until I can locate my dock by dunking the curser up and down in the black ooze.
    I really want the old convenience of my Mac, where several programs can open side by side, but Yosemite seems to have precluded that possibility.  What can I do?

    Yes, mission control threw everything across the screen (which is way beyond anything I could figure out), but the real answer I needed came from Apple Tech Support, which I finally called, and I learned about the two arrows in the top righthand corner, when I held the cursor there, which turned blue and resized and released the browser from total domination of the screen.  Those two, opposite-pointing arrows allowed me to shrink the browser and let other applications be seen on the desktop.  But thank you for extending a helpful tip, which I can use another time.

  • How to resize a jpg/gif file to a fix size using jimi ?

    I have search from the web and didn't find any example on doing this.
    Can any one give example on how to resize a jpg image. let say 120x240
    to a fixed size 40x40 ?
    thank you

    Hi.
    When you got that image in form of a file, just load it and invoke the image's getScaledInstance(...)-method.
    Here's how it could work:
    import java.awt.*;
    public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] argv) {
      // define where the image comes from:
      URL toImage = new URL("file:/C:/test.jpg");  // or the like
      // get the image:
      Image image = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(toImage);
      // scale the image to target size (40x40 here):
      Image smallImage = image.getScaledInstance(40, 40, Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
      // you might want to do other things like displaying it afterwards
    }HTH & cheers,
    kelysar

  • How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    How can I set up a guest access point with a Time Capsule and an Airport Extreme? I am using a Telus router with the Time Capsule used as a wireless access point (bridge mode). I don't want the guest access point to have access to my network.

    The Guest Network function of the Time Capsule and AirPort Extreme cannot be enabled when the device is in Bridge Mode. Unfortunately, with another router...the Telus...upstream on your network, Bridge Mode is indicated as the correct setting for all other routers on the network.
    If you can replace the Telus gateway with a simple modem (that performs no routing functions), you should be able to configure either the Time Capsule or the AirPort Extreme....whichever is connected to the modem....to provide a Guest Network.

    Sorry for my ignorance but does anyone know how to use iCloud as virtual storage for music n photos that I don't want on almost full iPhone? I have an iPad too and don't mind if these items are on there. Thx!

    You can't. It doesn't have an option that allows you to not have a copy of the data on your Mac. You can make the suggestion to Apple at https://www.apple.com/feedback/icloud.html

    1. Create a BitmapData of the correct size of the full image
    2. Use BitmapData.setPixels to create pixel data from your byteArray
    3. Make a new Bitmap, Bitmap.bitmapData = BitmapData
    4. Create a matrix with the correct scaling factors for your thumbnail
    5. Create a new BitmapData the size of your thumb
    6. Use BitmapData.draw to draw your image data from the Bitmap to the new BitmapData with the scaling matrix
    7. Use BitmapData.getPixels to create a bytearray from your thumb BitmapData
    8. save it
    You'll have to look up the AS3 reference to see how all these methods work.

    Locate the Guest Network tab located just below the row of icons and click on it
    (If you do not see a Guest Network tab....you likely do not have the Time Capsule connected to a simple modem)

  • How to resize all pages -Acrobat 9 Pro Extended ? ?

    I came across a pre-existing pdf file of an old book of genealogy.  According to the front pages, it was 'Digitized by Microsoft', so I know nothing on how it was generated.  Total pages are in excess of 1,100.
    In viewing the pages, they are reflected as 2 pages to a view; not the book opened with the spine in the middle, but images side by side ... in numerical order ... and they appear as a normal sized 2 page for that view.  When I print out a page, by number, it also prints out in a normal size on an 8x11 inch sheet of paper.
    However, rather than print page by page on individual sheets of paper, I want to print out multiple pages, 2 to a sheet of paper.  In doing this, the images of the pages come up as 3x5 inch; thus not readable if printed without the usage of magnifier.
    Not that familiar with the program, but tried to do a resize process by setting some adjustments and then to a new pdf file.  It did not change that much ... and increased the file size dramatically.
    I am a novice to these processes.  Can someone advise how to resize the whole file, with images of pages side by side, so that when multiple print is used for 2 pages the size comes up closer to something like 5x7 inch each?
    Thanks

    Let me try it this way.....
    1.  The pdf file, when initially opened up, in the opening view shows 2 simotaneous pages side by side ... with hardly a divider between them.  This at this point has nothing to do with the print mode.
    2.  The book in question was 'Digitized by Microsoft' ... don't know if that makes any difference, but thought it would help to under stand that it was not created by the normal Adobe Acrobat method.
    3.  Now, when I go to the Print mode, from where I just viewed the 2-side-by-side pages, the initial view there, for 'page', is just 1 page ... not the 2 page view I just came from ... and it will print out this view in a full sheet version.
    4.  But, not wanting to print out 1130 pages, want to print multi-page as allowed under Acrobat options.
    5.  So choose multi-page and 2 pages and "Print to printable area"..
    6.  When this option appears in the print viewing window, the 'images' (presuming that to be the correct reference) are small, over the normal (roughly) 5 x 7 inch (each) for a 2-page print option.
    7.  With the 2-page print option, the images are only 3.5 x 5.25 inches ... rather than something like 5 x 7 inch ... which is difficult to read without a magnifier.  [Note:  This 3.5 x 5.25 is as indicated in Properties that the original 'Digitizing' did.
    8.  So, in essence, how can one change the default individual image size from 3.5 x 5.25 inch size, to something closer to 5 x 7 inch size ... so that each image fills in more of it's half of the 8.5 x 11 inch page being printed ... rather than the small size reflected in the attached jpg ?
    I've attached a jpg of the print screen, and one of the 2 page side-by-side 'default' view in Acrobat.
    Thanks

  • How do I shrink a photo in Iphoto to fit a standard 8X10 page? I read that I should right-click in the Customize Preview page, but nothing happens

    How do I shrink a photo in Iphoto to fit a standard 8X10 page?  I tried to follow Old Toad's advice to right-click the image on the Customize screen, but absolutely nothing happened.

    You must think I'm an idiot, Larry, because you have been incredibly precise about your instructions.  However, as I keep saying, when I get to the "customize" screen, and I right-click the preview image, absolutely nothing happens.  I don't know what is wrong, but I can understand why you would give up on me. I simply CANNOT get the option "fit to frame."  Thank you so much for trying.  I think I had better give up.
